I have to be honest. I don't really know what Reggie defined Sola Scriptura as. On your story, Mr. C sounds alot like me, I tried hard to reconcile what I was reading in the bible to catholic teachings. But it can't be done. So I left and found a church that interprets the bible the way I do. And I know I'm right because I know it's from the HS. But I can't tell you why. I know that sounds like a cop out, that is how I use to feel about that kind of remark.

As far as the term sola scriptura I think it is a, ohhh, slanderous term, that is used by catholics. Sorry, that's how I feel about it.

Post 2730. He quotes a definition that most folks here (including me) seem to agree with. I would like to know why his definition disagrees with my story of Mr C.

So if it sounds like what you went through, my story must be somewhat reasonable?

Catholics didn't invent it, it was the original reformers who crusaded for "Sola Fides, Sola Scriptura, Sola Gratia"

It is used by some to slander and twist. Some always have their "Apologist" hat on and some make an honest attempt to understand. It is pretty easy to sort them out.
